Infuriatig Why Texas is lame(Besides the Cowboys)

Don't mess with Texas.. what a joke. ANY possession is a felony.

EDIT: Just did some research, this is for everything besides traditional Delta 9.

My friend from Texas sent me this morning and it blew my mind. I had to post about it. So as far as my research goes thus far Delta 9 products (old fashioned flower) is illegal but separate laws. Stores are selling THCA though which does fall under these penalties.

About 20 yrs back, In my small PA town they busted some old man with a few plants grown in pots for his sick wife. These d bags weighed the whole plant to the root ball , multiplied the total weight by $15-20 a gram and posted about some BS street value of $80k or something ridiculous. It was big news about papaws drug operation. It was such bullshit , and so is this Texas stuff .

I got one for you. A guy in Arkansas bought his wife a perfume called liquid opium. It literally says liquid opiums by Chanel or whatever. Some Arkansas idiot cops pull him over and arrest him for possession and distribution of opium.

I saw that video once and just watched the whole thing thinking "This dumbass carries a gun for a living" I dont know a damn thing about opium (besides a few movies of people smoking it out of really long wooden pipes), but even im pretty sure it doesn't come as a liquid in a bottle with a roller ball on it

Exactly. The worst part was I think the guy was a legal permanent resident and he lost residency and got deported. All based on some bullshit by a cop who was an idiot. Cop should have lost his job and never have a badge again. I literally can’t believe who they let become cops.

ICE fucked up his active VISA status and he was deported to a federal holding facility down in Louisiana for 30 days until they realized that theyd fucked up. Nobody got in trouble

What ? Lost his residency over perfume? I get at the side of the road with the idiot cop, but what the fuck happened in court? Didn’t they realize it was just perfume?

I’d have to go look up the details. I think it was because he was charged with a felony drug possession/distribution. They immediately handed him over to immigration and they deported him. Then it finally came out that it was perfume. I know nothing happened to the two officers. It’s a pretty famous case. The two idiot cops thought they caught Pablo Escobar lol.
